Episode 97: Spending on Nothing, and Schooling on Disagreement
In this episode, I talk about how the money spent on (literally) nothing will soon outpace defense spending, and not much later, non-defense spending as well. And no, it's not some right-wing think tank making that prediction. Also, is it possible to hav
Episode 96: Extending Unemployment Benefits Extends Unemployment, and Presidential Memoranda

Episode 89: Leon Panetta vs Obama’s War Policies, the Do-Nothing Congress, and Name That Quote!
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has accused Republicans in the House of Representatives of obstruction by not passing bills. What he's not saying (and what you're not hearing, depending on your source of news) is that there are hundreds of bills they've
